What was that sound? Oh yeah, a million hipsters simultaneously cheering as the read the title and first few paragraphs and then booing when they read the line "foreigners not included", and realizing that there wouldn't be an Amsterdam South. I'm all for legalization. The War on Drugs is an abject failure that's probably cost more than Iraq and Afghanistan combined for little to show except the highest incarceration rates in the world and an increasingly militarized and paranoid police state aborning here.

That may change given time, and the realization of prodigious amounts of revenue possible from a booming tourist trade....especially when others jump on the band wagon.

The wife is from Uruguay, which means I can become a legal resident with astonishing ease, apparently, so... I've got that going for me. Easier than having her become a legal resident of the United States at least. Christ what a hassle.

Cannabis is less harmful than tobacco, and it's social effect is far less damaging than alcohol, both of which are legal.

Sell it, tax it, fill in that deficit a bit; only people who object are the naive and those brainwashed by generations of politicians slaved to tobacco and alcohol industry lobbyists, who stand to lose a fortune.

What does alcohol do? and it's legal. Cannabis actually makes people drive slower and more carefully, is that what you mean by "Sunday driver"?

people who profit from absurdly high incarceration levels and DEA bureaucrats will yell even louder.people who want to see the young and the non-white blocked from voting will also appreciate the stunningly disproportionate nature of the prosecution efforts.Ask a prison guard union how long cannabis users should be locked up if you want to see a liquor lobbyist look sane by comparison
